Discussion on: what tech stacks do you use?

For work, I've long used Ruby on Rails with Postgresql and Redis running on some version of Linux with Nginx or Apache (depending on the systems folk).

For local work/personal projects, I strive to not run remote servers. So I use Hugo to kick out a static HTML site.

All of this I do with the underlying environment of Emacs.

I picked Emacs up 2 years ago, and I am stunned by how much more capable/productive/reflective/generative I now am. Gobsmacked.

For example, Emacs powers my personal knowledge management system (PKM) via org-mode and org-roam. I have continued to build functions to feed my PKM, as well as to harvest things from that PKM.

Imagine, I'm doing lots of coding, design reviews, daily written stand-ups, and weekly reports. All of that swirls within Emacs, and I've written functions to interconnect those approaches.

(Heck while writing this, I realized that I have a new function to consider to help me further integrate my daily activity.)
